Schachowskoi
The princes Schachowskoi (Schachowskoj, Schachowskoy, Russian Шаховской , Šachovskoy, French Chakhovskoï) are a Russian noble family that still exists today , whose line of tribes is derived from the Rurikids .
history
The lineage of the Schachowskoi princes begins with Konstantin Glebowitsch Shah, who was voivode of Nizhny Novgorod in 1482 . The male line is derived directly from the Russian principalities of Yaroslavl (13th and 14th centuries), the Principality of Smolensk (12th and 13th centuries) and the Grand Duchy of Kiev (10th and 11th centuries). Konstantin Glebowitsch Shah descended in the 16th generation from Rurik , the founder of the Russian Empire. The history of the Shakhovsky family is closely related to the history of Russia . Since the end of the Middle Ages , the family provided numerous voivodes, Orthodox clergy, officers and high officials.
During an army campaign through Belarus in 1563, Tsar Ivan IV "the terrible" killed Prince Ivan Shachowskoi with a club.
The prince's status was confirmed several times in Russia for the entire family between 1798 and 1888 by resolutions of the governing senate .
The Russian general Michail Walentinowitsch Schachowskoi (* 1836) married in 1862 with the heir to the old boyar family Glebow-Streschnew, which then died in 1864 . He then obtained a name and coat of arms association Schachowskoi-Glebow-Streschnew according to the principle of primogeniture in 1864 . From 1870 to 1875 he was governor of Estonia and as such was accepted into the Estonian knighthood in 1875 .
In the course of its existence, the Shachowskoy princes have formed four lines within their line of tribes. The IV. Line died out in the male line in 1700 . The III. In 2004 line existed in one person. The I and II lines flourish in France .
The historian and professor at Rennes University , Dimitri Chakhovskoï (* 1934), received Russian citizenship in 2004 . At a congress of Russian nobles in St. Petersburg , he said "We belong to the Ryurikov dynasty and have been used to doing something for our country for eleven centuries."
